Gongmen Chunhan

Chapter 84
Jiuyue got up early in the morning and took Fuzi out. This time the dance competition was held outside the palace, very close to the palace. When Jiuyue passed the gate of Qianqing, he saw a young eunuch running quickly. Yue ignored it and still walked at a faster pace.

"Jiu????" After walking for a while, Jiuyue heard a panting voice with her name on it from behind. After stopping, Jiuyue turned around and looked at the little eunuch behind her.

Seeing that handsome face squatting half out of breath, Jiuyue stopped Fuzi not to follow, ran up to help the emperor's hand, and asked in a low voice, "Long live, why are you dressed like this?" gone?"

"Xiao Jiu, I want to go with you." The emperor held Jiu Yue's palm tightly, acting like a spoiled child.

"But..." Jiuyue thought of some worries again.

"Xiao Jiu, if you don't let me go, I will immediately order other officials to take over your work." The emperor shook off Jiuyue's hand, holding his head high and threatening.

"Long Live Lord doesn't bring such threats." Jiuyue stretched out her hand and took his arm and shook it gently, with a bit of a coquettish tone, even her little face was smiling sweetly.

"Don't act like a spoiled child, should I go back to the Hall of Mental Cultivation with me or go out of the palace with you?" The emperor pushed Jiuyue's hand away again, shaking his sleeves, still looking like an emperor.

"Let's go!" Jiuyue turned around to ignore him and walked quickly.

Seeing the two people like that, Fuzi guessed curiously in her heart until the person opposite came over. Fuzi saw that face and was so frightened that she held Jiuyue's hand, and Jiuyue shook her head towards him. swallow the words back
Horses were prepared at the gate of the palace, and the three of them got on the horses and headed for the selection site. The selection site for the dance competition was set in a busy commercial street, and a tall lace stage was set up. The seats are all for the officials who participated in the selection. There is already a long queue inside. The girls inside are all dressed up, and there are already officers and soldiers guarding the seats. The people in the seats are also seated. There is a space in the middle that is reserved for September.

It's not surprising that Jiuyue has the greatest power in this competition, as the general affairs of the palace are entrusted to high-ranking eunuchs.

There was a huge crowd in front of the stage. Several people in official robes were standing on the stage with their hands behind their backs, walking back and forth a little anxiously. When the people in the audience saw a few people coming on horseback from the opposite side, they hurried up to the stage. , walked to the side of a man in official robes and said someone was coming.

The few officials looked along the front and indeed saw someone, and immediately went up to greet them with their clothes on, and the vast crowd below the stage actively divided into two sides, opened a way, and there were many discussions in the audience. Curious scrambling to see.

After Jiuyue, Fuzi, and the emperor got off the horse, the officials quickly straightened their hats with their hands, and then stepped forward quickly, bowing their heads and saluting to Jiuyue, "Welcome to Jiuzhang case from humble office".

The words of lowly position made the emperor uncomfortable to hear. The court minister actually bowed his head to call an eunuch a lowly position. Wouldn't it be a forcible violation of the rules of the ancestors.

Jiuyue nodded her head lightly, but didn't speak. Jiuyue passed through a long human road. People on both sides saw the two young eunuchs opposite, and they covered their mouths and talked a lot.

"What a handsome eunuch, you look good!"

"See, that Jiuzhangan is as beautiful as a fairy, not inferior to a woman at all"

"The one behind is tender and beautiful"

There was a lot of discussion for a while, from the vast crowd to the dancers who lined up under the stage, no doubt they were not looking at Jiuyue and the emperor opposite.

The emperor followed behind, seeing clearly how those majestic ministers fawned over Jiuyue, he was even more disgusted in his heart, and clenched his fists tightly.

On the stage, when Jiu Yue was seated, she casually glanced at the emperor, and saw that the emperor's face had changed, Jiu Yue could only turn her head back, after all, there were people sitting on the left and right sides, so it was difficult to speak.

Lighting a big incense, sticking it on the censer cauldron at the side, Jiuyue whispered to the person beside him, and then the person went down to pass on the message, the sound of "beginning" disturbed many people's hearts, and for a while There was a burst of joy on and off the stage.

According to the old rules, read the name, and then dance for a while, ten names for a competition, Hubu Shilang and several officials choose the one they like, but the final decision to stay or go is up to September.

After the fight, Jiuyue found out that the servants of the household department and those officials had selected a few people who Wu Zi said had passed, and those who were not selected, Jiuyue felt that some of them were good.

The little hand tapped his chin lightly, thinking deeply for a few moments, Fuzi on the side lowered his head and put it next to Jiuyue's ear and whispered, "Those who bribed the chief interrogator in private."

In fact, Jiuyue could guess it. I originally wanted to let it go like this, but this time the emperor came with me. The roster, lightly tapped with cinnabar, and then quickly circled the names of those people.

Fuzi on the side stood by, carefully watching Jiuyue draw the name, and the chief judge on the side looked at Jiuyue with a smile on his face, waiting for Jiuyue to approve the finalists.

After finishing the painting in September, she closed the book, handed the roster to Fuzi, and then got up, "My lord, this servant is going back to the palace with the roster to return the order to Lafayette."

Those few people all rolled their eyes to see what Jiuyue wrote, but the curious eyeballs did not leave for a long time, but the servant of the household department nodded his head calmly and smiled, "Jiu Zhang's case is easy to leave".

On the way back, because I didn’t have lunch, I decided to eat outside. Considering the status of the emperor, Jiuyue decided not to go to a restaurant. I often go to inns that are not crowded.

The emperor was silent all the way. He would leave the palace with Jiuyue. In fact, he had thought of this for a long time. He also wanted to see if it was the same as what Concubine Zhen said. He bribed Jiuyue, but it turned out not to be the case today, Jiuyue did not object to those selected, he clearly saw the ordinary dancing posture of those people.

Now that Jiu Yue went out of the palace just to have lunch, the inn staff saw that Jiu Yue was polite and respectful, no worse than Li Lianying, a lot of emotions arose in him for a while.

Even lunch was not enjoyable, Jiuyue didn't say anything, just ate quietly, after lunch, on the way back to the palace, the emperor rode a horse with a bit of temper, walking in front alone, Jiuyue Looking at him, he just lowered his head lightly and didn't speak.

When she returned to the palace, Jiuyue asked Fuzi to go to Chuxiu Palace to wait for her, but she sent the emperor back to the Hall of Mental Cultivation first.

"Are you optimistic about those people?" The emperor looked at Jiuyue and asked abruptly.

"If you can dance well, the servants will take a fancy to it!" Jiuyue smiled softly.

"Those who were selected, I don't think they can dance well." Hearing Jiu Yue's non-painful answer, the emperor became agitated again.

"Hehe, there is no need to worry, Lord Long Live, and Lord Long Live will know when the list is announced." Looking at the sky, it was getting late in September, so he stopped at the entrance of the Hall of Mental Cultivation and did not enter.

"Little Jiu, I know you are not that kind of person, don't let me down." The emperor held Jiuyue's shoulders with both hands and looked at Jiuyue, he was waiting for Jiuyue's reply.

"Xiao Jiu has never been that kind of person." Jiu Yue smiled softly, stood on tiptoe and hugged the emperor's, then stood up and smiled, "Long Live Lord, the slave is going back to Chuxiu Palace first."

"En!" The emperor stretched out his hand and patted Jiuyue's hat lightly, and smiled.

After sending the emperor in in September, she turned around and left. She knew what the emperor was talking about, and this matter is indeed not like that, but as an emperor, it is the most taboo, tabooing courtiers and eunuchs Hook up.
